Green Iguana: Selva Verde Lodge, Sarapiqui, Costa Rica, March 2025 \u2014 Coming back from a excellent morning of photography at Dave and Dave\u2019s Costa Rican Nature Park, we got to the dinning hall at the Selva Verde just in time for a visit from this huge Iguana. It had to be 7 feet long from snout to tail tip, and the body itself was at a least 3 feet long, and the size of a small bull dog. (It had that look too.) They are called Green Iguanas because the young are bright green. (I encountered one on the way back from lunch. Photos tomorrow maybe.) This big adult is more grayish orange and was after the remnants of the fruit put out that morning for the birds. I have seen iguanas like this high in the trees, but never this close. Impressive! Sony a6700. Tamron 50-400 at 226 and 585mm equivalents. (It is times like this when I really appreciate having a zoom.) Program mode with my birds and wildlife modifications. Processed in Photomator. <\/p>\n
